The Sharron Callahan Member Assistance Fund
Girl Guides of Canada-Guides du Canada, Newfoundland and Labrador
Council, is committed to ensuring that every girl and woman who chooses
to be a Member has the opportunity to participate fully in the Guiding
program, without concern that membership will be compromised due to
affordability. To this end, the Provincial Council of Newfoundland and
Labrador established the Member Assistance Fund at the end of the term
of office (April 2007) of Provincial Commissioner Sharron Callahan to
recognize her contribution to Guiding in Newfoundland and Labrador.

The
Sharron Callahan Member Assistance Fund was initially started with a
transfer of funds from the Provincial Council investment portfolio.
Additional revenue is invited from donations, bequests, corporate
giving, fundraising, and Councils’ contributions.
